(a) Given:
Atomic mass of H = 1 u
Therefore, molecular mass of H2 can be calculated as follows:
1 × 2 = 2
Hence, molecular mass of H2 is 2 u.
(b) Given:
Atomic mass of O = 16 u
Therefore, molecular mass of O2 can be calculated as follows:
16 × 2 = 32
Hence, molecular mass of O2 is 32 u.
(c) Given:
Atomic mass of Cl = 35.5 u
Therefore, molecular mass of Cl2 can be calculated as follows:
35.5 × 2 = 71
Hence, molecular mass of Cl2 is 71 u.
(d) Given:
Atomic mass of N = 14 u
Atomic mass of H = 1 u
Therefore, molecular mass of NH3 can be calculated as follows:
(1 × 14) + (3 × 1) = 17
Hence, molecular mass of NH3 is 17 u.
(e) Given:
Atomic mass of C = 12 u
Atomic mass of O = 16 u
Therefore, molecular mass of CO2 can be calculated as follows:
(1 × 12) + (2 ×16) = 44
Hence, molecular mass of CO2 is 44 u.
